How we track your use of our site(s)

Use of IP Addresses

An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the web. Web servers automatically identify your computer by it’s IP address. SingWay collects IP addresses for the purpose of system administration, and to create reports and to audit the use of our site. When you request pages from SingWay sites, our servers or computers log the guests IP addresses. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a member remains anonymous to us.

Use of Cookies

Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual’s hard drive for record keeping purposes. Cookies make web surfing easier for you by saving your preferences while you’re at your site . We never save passwords or credit card information in cookies. The use of cookies is common and beneficial. You’ll find them in most major web sites. By showing how and when guests use a site, cookies help us to see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates are based on information provided by cookies. Cookies also help us to personalise pages to meet our guests needs.

It is important to note the following things:

• We will not use cookies to identify specific individuals (except in online shopping, which expire after you complete your shopping) or for specific contests or interactive content requiring the need to track your progress.
